Timing retard crazy idea
Timing retard crazy idea
Alright I already know for a fact that I can use a variable resistor on the coolant sensor to adjust my fuel mixture. I'm now thinking what if I tie into my knock sensor with a volume switch(variable resistor) how much retard can I get. Yes it sounds crazy I'll explain the entire theory later. ANYONE know how much the knock sensor will retard the overall timing.

Re: Timing retard crazy idea
I love crazy ideas!
That's interesting about the resistor. I'd like to know more.
Are you trying to push your timing retard for better performance?

Re: Timing retard crazy idea
so the coolantsensor controls mixture? i have mine connected but just dangling.
boosted tho..

Re: Timing retard crazy idea
thanx for the link there is some good info in there alot of reading. according to that page if I want to retard my timing significantly the crank angle sensor would be the better sensor to play with. Not shure now if I need to play at all I got a deal on MS cheap

Figure #16 indicates a maximum retard of 5º due to knock detection.

Never attribute to malice that which can be adequately explained by stupidity.

Re: Timing retard crazy idea
Yah I saw that 5 degrees is enough for a 1/4 bar of boost with good fuel. when I build it I will show you my top secret invention. I'll use the stock ecu to control fuel and spark for mild boost(I think all theory right now)wytbishop wrote:Figure #16 indicates a maximum retard of 5º due to knock detection.
